A photograph of a slide allegedly taken at an internal Samsung Mobile presentation has been leaked revealing specs for the Galaxy S3.

Snapped during a presentation on “smartphone evolution,” the Samsung Galaxy S3 is listed as having the following features:

- 1.8GHz dual-core processor
- 2GB of RAM
- 12MP camera
- 4.6-inch Super AMOLED Plus HD



Phandroid,who was sent the photo, also claims that the new Android handset will be thinner and sport a more rounded shape than its predecessor, the square-shaped Galaxy S2 handset. Judging from the slide, which shows the handset displaying five tray icons, it looks likely it will also run the latest version of Android, dubbed Ice Cream Sandwich.

Until Samsung states otherwise we can only treat this as a rumour, and while we’re waiting for the Galaxy Nexus (previously known as Nexus Prime) to launch it’s unlikely we’ll hear an official announcement before then.

The Samsung Galaxy Nexus, the first Android device to run Ice Cream Sandwich, was due to launch this week but release date was postponed following the death of Apple founder Steve Jobs last week.

Now we just need to know when its out. April/May next year would suit me perfectly (X10 contract renewal).

Why would they put “private internal presentation” on the slide? Surely that would be obvious if you saw it at a … y'know, private internal presentation? They've also mis-spelled ‘copying’ and used phone pics with ugly white boxes around them, just like they've been lazily cropped from a web page. Also, shouldn't it all be in Korean?

Looks fake.

As pointed out on a rather popular technology blog, surely they would use the right terminology for the screen, which would be “HD Super AMOLED” instead of “Super AMOLED Plus HD”.

Can you imagine Steve Jobs if he saw this. If this is official, there's no excuse for such lazy presentation, internal or otherwise. Spelling mistakes, poor crops, and generally about the level of a 10 year old's power point slide.

Yes.
